Rainstorm


At the beginning of last week, we had two days of good rain.  I was standing on the front porch looking out when it started raining hard for a bit, so I took my toy camera and made this photograph.  I love the atmospheric effect of so much rain that it almost looks foggy as you look further into the distance.  And I like the feeling of this photograph as well, whatever that is.   Please click on this to examine it in a larger size and you can see the streaks of raindrops throughout the picture.

Love this photo and how the rain is visible. The white chairs and a bit of the garage look good with the full green shrubbery background. It looks quiet and peaceful and like the perfect summer rainstorm. Trace

Trace said it perfectly! I love how the rain is visible. Your backyard looks very different from past photos
because the focus is more about the heavily wooded background of trees.

Thank you all for your nice comments. At first glance, it hardly seems like a memorable photograph, but the more I look at it, the more lovely it seems. Subtle, but memorable.
